The Electoral Commission (EC) is set to begin nationwide transportation of ballot papers on Thursday, November 14, in preparation for the December 7 elections.
In a letter dated November 13, the EC informed political party General Secretaries of the distribution schedule.
The first phase starts in the Greater Accra Region on Thursday, followed by the Central, Western, Savannah, and Upper West Regions on Friday, November 15.
On Saturday, November 16, ballot papers will reach the Ashanti, Ahafo, and Western North Regions.
This distribution marks the next step in the EC’s month-long preparations, which also included finalizing voter registration, allocating polling stations, and training election officers.
The ballot papers will be securely stored in police facilities within each region until election day, when they will be handed over to officials in the presence of party representatives to ensure transparency.
The EC has reassured the public that stringent security measures are in place to uphold the integrity of the electoral process and to prevent tampering or unauthorized access.
